HEXAnd I've really hurt my gaming arm... I'm not sure we'll be able to do the review....

DARRENOh never mind.... Goose, ready to step it up for your dance lesson?

GOOSEAlright D-Max letís hit it!

DARRENAffirmative Goose. Ah-hem, Just Dance 4 is the latest official sequel in the series. And after a number of spin offs that focused on particular artists, this addition is a freshly mixed bag of songs and dance styles that will have you up off the couch and grooving like it was nobodyís business! Ah ha haaaa

GooseThe game can be played with up to 4 player and features a set list of over 40 songs ranging from cutesy pop, sizzling salsa and even some WUB WUB Darren!

DARRENOoo I do love a bit of electro. But I have to say Goose, I was particularly excited that they have included one of my favourite songs of all time!

GOOSEOh not that ĎMoves Like Jaggerí song?!

DARRENEven better Goose...

GOOSEOh no Darren... you donít mean?...

Ahh Darren! That meme is so old!

DARRENIím bringing it back baby!

GOOSEThe songs are definitely the star in a game like this, and while most are pulled straight from the top of the charts, itís still great to see some daggy old songs made the cut too - because in my opinion, they make for some of the best dance routines. Plus the visual backgrounds and costumes that accompany these songs look fantastic!

DARRENJust like the games title, thereís really just a few ways to play in Just Dance, and thatís just to dance in the ďJust DanceĒ mode.

Here completing songs gain you a star rating that you can show off on your gamer card. Youíll also earn XP and level up by completing specific ďDance QuestsĒ such as reaching hi scores or perfecting particular moves.

GOOSEItís nice to see theyíve included a leveling system to make it a bit more gamey, watching that progress bar fill definitely made me want to push on with the next song and see what rewards I would get for reaching the next level!

DARRENThese rewards include alternate dance routines and song mix ups that are designed specifically for dance battles against your friends. Although we did have some trouble with those didnít we Goose...

GOOSEThe only other mode included is a fitness game called Just Sweat. Here youíll choose from a selection of themed workout routines that combine energetic pump classes with dances from the main campaign. I have to admit Darren I went into this mode thinking it would be a walk in the park, but all of a sudden I was doing air kicks and uppercuts and breaking a REAL sweat!

DARRENIn this mode you can keep track of how many calories youíve burned, all while watching a nifty power meter that tracks how energetic your moves are. It certainly was tiering keeping track of all that information during youíre routines...

GOOSELike the previous versions, Just Dance 4 uses either the Wiimote, Move controller or the Kinect depending on what system youíre playing it on. But using remotes is always tricky in these games because dancing uses your whole body so we found the Kinect version easily outshined the other two.

DARRENIndeed Goose, as discovered in other dance titles such as Dance Central and Kinect: Star Wars, the Kinect is positively the most accurate device when it comes to measuring who is the best at the boogie.

GOOSEItís a lot easier for players to just drop in and out mid routine, and I especially liked the way it captures your dance moves and remixes them into humorous little videos that you can upload and show off to friends!

DARRENHowever I was disappointed to see they still havenít included a practice mode or any sort of tutorial. And those dance indicators at the bottom of the screen are just as confusing as ever!

GOOSEI agree Darren, they can be very cryptic! Most of the time they lead to some pretty silly looking first attempts. It definitely takes a few attempts until you can put together a routine as complicated as this!

DARRENOverall Just Dance 4 is exactly what weíve come to expect from a sequel in this series. It adds a number of small features to what has become a very successful formula, and finishes it all off with a large and varied and entertaining list of songs to dance the night away to.

GOOSEItís definitely the most polished game in the series, the colourful visuals and stylized backgrounds for each song look fantastic and the addition of XP challenges not only make this a great party game but also a pretty decent solo experience as well, so Iím giving it 8/10 rubber chickens.

DARRENItís an 8 from me too.

SPAWN SELECTS

Do you like the change of our scoring system to 5-star ratings?

Affirmative! It's easy to understand if a game is good or not.

Negative. I preferred the ten out of ten system.

I'm not sure, I'll give it more time to get used to.

I don't care about scores. It's what you say about the game that matters.
